The Bermuda Triangle is a mythical section of the Atlantic Ocean roughly


bounded by Miami, Bermuda and Puerto Rico where dozens of ships and
airplanes have disappeared.

Disappearance of ships, small boats, and aircraft. Over 8,000 people have
disappeared in the Triangle. There has also been strange yellow fog seen in
that area. People have had instruments such as a compass stop working while
in the Triangle.

By the time author Vincent Gaddis coined the phrase “Bermuda Triangle” in a
1964 magazine article, additional mysterious accidents had occurred in the
area, including three passenger planes that went down despite having just
sent “all’s well” messages. Charles Berlitz, whose grandfather founded the
Berlitz language schools, stoked the legend even further in 1974 with a
sensational bestseller about the legend.

Bermuda triangle, also known as the Devil’s Triangle, happens to be one of the
most mysterious places on this planet. Located off the southeastern coast of
the US in the Atlantic Ocean, between Bermuda, Florida and Puerto Rico, the
region has become the Centre of unresolved mysteries. Covering an area of
440,000 miles of sea, the Bermuda triangle is part of a busy shipping route,
with several vessels heading to America, Europe and the Caribbean crossing
through every day.
There is an area of the North Atlantic Ocean known as the Bermuda Triangle
where ships, airplanes and people have been known to disappear without
explanation. No-one knows for certain why more than 50 ships and 20 planes
have vanished since the mid-19th century. But that's not to say people haven't
had some fun seeking an explanation.

After 70 years of superstitious speculations around disappearance of ships


and planes in the Bermuda Triangle, an Australian scientist has come out and
claimed that there was no mystery in Bermuda Triangle in the first place,
reported an Australian news website news.com.au. In a statement to the
website, Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki pointed out that the number of planes that have
gone missing in the Bermuda Triangle is the same as anywhere in the world
on a percentage basis and has nothing to do with aliens or fire-crystal from
the lost city of Atlantis. Instead, he believes that human error is responsible
for people going missing in the region.

SAMPLE OUTLINE

TITLE: Bermuda Triangle Science or Miracle or Superstition

Introduction
a. Introductory statement: The Bermuda Triangle or "Devil's Triangle" is a
triangular-shaped area off the coast of Florida that is famous for reports
in which strange disappearances occur and magnetic compasses go
haywire.

b. Thematic statement: Some of these disappearances have been


attributed to the paranormal, a suspension of the laws of physics, or
activity by extraterrestrial beings by popular culture. Over 8,000 people
have disappeared in the Triangle. There has also been strange yellow
fog seen in that area. People have had instruments such as a compass
stop working while in the Triangle.
Body
a. First supporting idea: The Bermuda Triangle got its name from a 1964
article in the pulp magazine Argosy, which linked together a few
disappearances in the region. “The Deadly Bermuda Triangle” didn’t
offer up any explanations for the occurrences, though it did heavily
emphasize the mysterious nature of the area.
b. Second supporting idea: The article features the disappearance of the
U.S.S Cyclops, a Navy supply ship, in 1918, and the loss of a flight of
bombers during a practice run in 1945, as well as one of the search
and rescue planes sent out after them.
c. Third supporting idea: These incidents, and others, have today become
part of the lore of the Bermuda Triangle. These stories are often
stitched together to hint at something untoward lurking beneath the
surface of the Atlantic Ocean. In addition to the supernatural
explanations, a number of more realistic explanations for the
phenomenon have been put forward throughout the years, ranging
from wayward magnetism to dangerous bubbles.

Conclusion
We may never know how many ships and planes have been lost at sea in the
Bermuda Triangle over the centuries. We may never know how they all
disappeared, when they disappeared or all the circumstances around their
disappearances. We may never know if Atlantis is really at the bottom of the
ocean just off the shore of Miami.
What we do know, however, is that the Bermuda Triangle is not nearly the
most dangerous area of the ocean, but it is certainly one of the most heavily
trafficked areas. Just as a high concentration of car accidents occur on the New
Jersey Turnpike because it is so heavily traveled, it's no wonder that a larger
concentration of disappearances happen in the 1.5 million square miles of
heavily-trafficked waterways. To sum up the whole, we can say that people
shouldn’t freak out too much or deny any cruises through the Bermuda
Triangle. So that they can be safe.
